Launched as a brand-new vehicle during the 2020 model year, the Chrysler Voyager is basically a higher-end version of the Pacifica, which is another Chrysler vehicle. With the Dodge Caravan now discontinued, the Voyager takes over as the most affordable vehicle in its class. Learn more about the four best family-friendly features you can expect with the 2021 Voyager.

Impressive Technology
To keep everyone connected, the 2021 Voyager comes with Chrysler’s easy-to-use Uconnect 4 infotainment system. To keep you as the driver safe, you can connect your phone to make hands-free calls. You can also access music and other types of media on your phone with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto without using your fingers. You can use its responsive 7-inch touch-screen display or access the information via physical buttons and dials.
Don’t forget about your rear-seat travelers who might need entertaining during long drives. The minivan offers a built-in DVD player so the kids can enjoy their favorite movies. They can even benefit from the active noise cancelation technology that quiets outside noises so they can hear the movies without having to turn up the volume too high.

Stellar Fuel Economy
Every Voyager trim has the same 3.6-liter V-6 engine that produces 287 horsepower. Even when the vehicle is loaded with passengers and cargo, the engine packs a powerful punch, especially behind its nine-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. Its 19-gallon tank means you’re not constantly driving to the gas station, allowing you to save money. The vehicle gets an EPA-estimated 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, which is good for its class and similar to numbers you would get with the Honda Odyssey.

Additional Safety Features
Nothing is more important than your family’s safety, and Chrysler added automatic emergency braking and forward-collision warning for the 2021 models. They join safety features already found on the minivan, some of which include blind-spot monitoring, pedestrian detection, a rearview camera, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear parking sensors. The minivan also has four complete sets of LATCH connectors, with two in both the second and third rows.

Ample Space
No matter where your family sits inside the minivan, they have plenty of space to ride comfortably. Rear-seat passengers have either 39 or 36.5 inches of space, depending on which row they’re riding in, while those in the front get 41 inches. Three kids can easily ride in the third row without a problem.
When it comes to cargo space, the minivan has 32.3 cubic feet of space behind the third-row seats and 87.5 cubic feet of space behind the second row. The vehicle also comes with Stow ‘n Go seating, which allows you to easily hide the second-row seats instead of having to physically remove them. When all the seats are folded, the minivan has 140.5 cubic feet of space, which rivals some pickup trucks.
If you’re shopping for an affordable, family-friendly vehicle, consider the 2021 Chrysler Voyager. Thanks to its abundant interior space, numerous safety features, impressive fuel economy, and intuitive infotainment system, your entire family can ride comfortably and safely.
